5.x XSIMMAKE - Appears to halt in the middle of processing, no error messages

Solution

In a few instances, Xsimmake may appear to stop processing and not issue any messages.

CAUSE:

When Xsimmake interfaces with Viewlogic routines, occasionally one of those routines waits for some additional input. However, no messages are issued to indicate that the program is still running and is waiting for further input.

SOLUTION:

If Xsimmake appears to be taking an abnormally long time to run and there is no disk access taking place, halt the program and run Xsimmake with the -v option (verbose), which writes all messages to the screen.
